Outreach Dear Rabbi,

The blessing of the ChaBaD teaching being available on the internet, I feel, is doing far greater work than can be humanly envisaged.

I am extremely grateful for this sharing of knowledge that enables me to read and understand the Torah in ways that would never have been possible without this guidance.

Thank you Reply
